More progress. Data CDs are read just fine.

file -s /dev/scd0 

cannot deal with audio disks, but it can deal with DVDs. It identifies 
them as UDF and reads the DVD label.

I am trying to use a program "Sound Juicer" to rip music to the hard 
drive. This program reports that it cannot
find any CD-ROM drives.

I created a root account and tried from there with the same result, so I 
don't think it is a permission issue.

Google shows a number of people reporting this problem, but I can't find 
a solution.

When I insert an audio CD in my desktop Ubuntu system, an icon appears 
on the desktop. It does not on the PS3.

Any further thoughts?

Many thanks
Stephen
